Abstract:

Kudzu, the so-called “plant that ate the South,” was introduced in the 1930s. It can cover entire landscapes in lush, green foliage, and while it can control erosion and feed livestock, it is considered a pest. Geographically, it is limited by the fact that it does not tolerate cold weather well.
